Gold party pin opinions

[Dave Wyatt]

Hi guys, what are your thoughts? Sorry for the small pics. They are all I have at this time.

Need much better and close up pics for authenication.

Was this one in that last vet find?

[Matthew]

not good IMO

Better pics will give us definite yes or no but looking at the pin plate I would lean towards this being one of the so called 'Austrian' fakes

cheers

Hi guys, I compared the lettering of this one to another feuss. IMO it's not close. The picture should be clickable. I know I shouldn't upload from another host, but I'm nowhere near a computer.

The pic is clickable but does not expand in size when clicked on.
Anyways- if C in MUNCHEN is elongated rather than round I would lean towards a reproduction piece.
Hopefully pic below will give you an idea of the shape I am talking about- real piece on left and yours on right.
That's the only thing I can sort of make out- pic of the front shows no details at all.

cheers

Hello,

the pics are big enough to identify the austrian fake. For sure it is.


Best Regards

I agree with Erich: "Need much better and close up pics for authentication." I couldn't even read the Pg's number stamped to this badge's reverse with certainty, given the glare of the flash.

Most likely the owner took the worst photos possible to hide the fact that the badge is bad to a novice collector.

Click on the pictures to open original uploads elsewhere. Austrian fake.

Clicking doesn't help me, Andreas; the pix stay small.

Br. James: Once on Taptalk, click again (magnifying glass).
